What He u,hraW AWAY

An Albany gentleman some years
ago did business for parties in Chicago.
They failed and all they offered in pay
ment of their account was piece of
wild land in South Chicago. The ac-
count was about $500 and the deed of
the land was accepted. Investigation
disclosed that the land was in swamp
and apparently of no present or pro-
spective value. After paying taxes on
it for several years the Albany holder
finally abandoned it and it was doubt
less sold for non-payment of taxes. Not
long ago while sitting Chicago the
gentleman looked up the property and
to his nmazement and disgust discover
ed that it was in the most valuable
part of South Oh cago and that had he
reta ned it no would have been worth
ct least $3.50, 000.-Aibany journal.

The diffusion process for making sugar
is very simple. 1t consists, in brief, in
chopping un the cane into small bits say
slices an eighth of an inch thick, then
sleeping the mass IN tubes for two or three
hours with hot water. This extracts the
saccharine matter much more effectively
than the ordinary mode of squeezing the
cane between rollers. The warm juice
| thus obtained is then heated and stirred
with the addition of lime, and finally
br, ught to Il boil; it is then allowed to
stand awhile and the clear part is then
run int" the vacuum pans and boiled into
sugar. in the usual manner. The refuse
from the tubs may be fed to cattle Any
intelligent farmer may work the process.
The cost of apparatus is small.

Gentlemen:
Some months ago received your letter
of inquiry. My daughter has been taking
your Syrup for months now using the
seventh bottle; has been on her back bed
ridden six months with liver consumption.
Since using your remedy, has had two
large abcesSes of the liver, which have
been cured by using your Syrup. Her
life has been saved, we all believe. from
its use Yet she is in a very feeble con-
dition, and takes no medicine whatever
except your Syrup. myself think it the
greatest blood tonic known, and firmly
believe bad we known of it year earlier
my daughter would to-day be in sound
health. Have had best medical skill, also
travelled extensively for her good, but IN
all never fonnd its equal | have pre-.
scribed it to my patients. and have in
every case bad the desired effect. Very
respectfully, DR.. E. A. Chapman.

Gentlemen:
Your letter of the seventh inst is be-
fore me- and in reply will say: If my
former letter to you will do suffering hui
mainly any good it should be published.
1t was through letter from resident Of
Pontiac that first brought it to my daugh-
ter's notice, and my. only regret is that
we did not know of it year ago instead
of the last six months. | shall still pre-
scribe it to my patients, as | think it is
the most wonderful remedy known or
ever put before the public, Truly your
reward will be great as suffering humanity
is blessed. and as you become more thor
oughly known. Very truly yours.

THE OHIO rARnsRs IN THE LEAD.
The Oldest, the strongest, the Safest
and the Best.
To The Farmers of Highland County:

To the Farmers of Highland County:
The business OF fire insurance has
become an important one to the farmers
OF Ohio, there being over one million
dollars worth Of farm property destroyed
by fire and lightning every year in the
State, and the question arises "which is
the proper company to insure with?" We
have no hesitancy in saying that the
Ohio Farmers' Co. stands head and
shoulders above all other companies in
regard to age, experience and stability.
1t is adapted solely to the wants of the
farmer, its policies are more liberal than
any other company, and it insures upon
easier terms. Again 1t Is home com.
pany and its losses arc paid by home
agents. It pays the same attention to
adjusting small losses that it does to
large ones.
An Ohio Farmer agent must be of
good moral character and the standing
of the company is unsurpassed. Other
companies come and go, but the Ohio
Farmers, havingbeen in the country for
forty years, is here to stay. 1t has defied
all competition. A number of years ago
the Watertown Company entered the
field, but in short time gave way to the
American Of Chicago, which in turn was
compelled to withdraw and it's place
taken by the Continental of N. Y, and
now the Continental has virtually retired
from the contest, leaving q lot of small
smaller companies nagging at the heels
OF the sturdy old Ohio Farmers, taking
the refuse of business and trying to
make headway by lies and misrepresen.
tations concerning the company that our
grandfathers used to insure with.
The truth of the matter is the Ohio
Farmers Co. has paid losses in every
school district in the county, and its
reputation is firmly established. 1t
has the cream Of the business, over 1000
of our best farmers are now insured in it.
1t is authorized by the laws of our
State to do business on the regular stock
plan, and its policy holders can not
under any circumstances be assessed. 1t
issues receipt in full of all demands,
and the policy distinctly states that
there is no liability to assessment, lying
agents Of other companies TO the con-
trary notwithstanding.
Fires are occurring every few days in
our county, and we would advise our
readers If they have not already done so,
to insure at once in some good company.
It is much easier to pay small insur.
ance premium than to borrow money to
replace your loss. The Ohio Farmers il
the company for age, experience, repu'
tation and stability.
